To start of this post, we Canadians would like to apologize for taking up your time with this Canadian-filled post XD
Every year, in Ontario (a province in Canada, for the geographically challenged), a giant book club is set in action. Sounds interesting? Well, it is! Every year, 10 books are chosen for 9 categories. The categories include:
| Badge | Name | Age | type of book |
|---|---|---|---|
 |
Blue Spruce™ | JK–Grade 2 | Picture books |
 |
Silver Birch® | Grades 3–6 | Fiction / Non-fiction |
 |
Red Maple™ |
Grades 7–8 | Fiction, Non-fiction (every other year) |
 |
White Pine™ | Grades 9–12 | Fiction |
Basically, every school I’ve ever been too has participated in this province wide book club. We read, trade and discuss the books, and at the end of the year, we vote for a winner. I thought it would be cool to review and predict the end results! Since I am in high school, I will be doing the White Pine level books, simply because they tend to be more relevant to me. But that’s not to say that I won’t review them 😉
Starting every other week, Faith and I (or just me) will review the books, and hopefully discuss the books with people who have read them 🙂 And on May 17th, we will go the the Festival of Reading and see who won (obviously documenting our adventure 😉 )
Today I’ll post a list of all the books I will review, tomorrow I’ll post first impressions, and from then on, Wednesdays will be the very reviews 😀
Hence the name, you know 😉
The story of Owen : dragon slayer of Trondheim
These titles all link to their Goodreads page 😀

This seems like such an interesting concept, I wish more places followed Canada’s lead!

After all of the reviews I’ve seen of The Troop, I’m both surprised and perplexed that it’s on the list for young adults LOL.

IKR it’s pretty random. I feel like they have one wild card every year. I guess it’s horror this year 😛

I’m so excited for this 🙂 I have read none of these books so your reviews should point in the right direction! Looks like a pretty cool idea you guys have there in Canada, good luck 😀

America should do this! We have things like DEAR (Drop everything and read) but really, most of the class spends it talking. It’s a shame that they don’t extend it to adults, though!

Actually, they do have an adult book club, but it has a smaller selection. Also, I find them less interesting so… 😛 We also have national book awards ~ I highly advise checking out the nominees in Canada Reads (CBC runs it).
